Demonstrating innovation in flexible cargo management to support the clean energy transition Purus, a leading provider of maritime services for the gas transport and offshore wind industries, successfully completed the first co-loaded shipment operation of ammonia (NH3) and propane (LPG) on its Medium-size Gas Carrier (MGC), Green Power . The vessel is currently on time charter to Trafigura, a market leader in the global commodities industry, and the operation was carried out for CF Industries. The ammonia parcel was loaded in Louisiana, while the LPG parcel was loaded into a separate tank in Texas. After a transatlantic crossing, the ammonia was safely discharged at Tees Port in the UK. The LPG was discharged via a ship-to-ship (STS) transfer operation in the Mediterranean. This achievement follows Green Power 's first STS ammonia transfer in July 2024, also conducted under its time charter with Trafigura. Purus is a leading owner and operator of MGCs for safe ammonia transport, and Green Power is one of its nine MGCs (three on the water and six newbuilds). The vessels, built at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard in South Korea, are ammonia propulsion-ready, and will meet the EEDI Phase III requirement. Read more about Purus’s MGCs here . By successfully executing this pioneering co-loaded operation, Purus reinforces its leadership in ammonia transport while showcasing exceptional cargo management capabilities. This milestone highlights Purus's commitment to advancing operational flexibility, enabling customers to make agile cargo deployment decisions that optimise economies of scale and reduce emissions, further enabling the clean energy transition.
